Still extremely expensive, as soon as the BMC 4K camera hits the stores.For another $2K less you get 4K instead of 1080p, 10-bit prores instead of 8-bit 4:2:0 H.264, and global shutter.Yes, I know it does have some downsides. But it's much cheaper, and better where it counts most (to me).

Actually, there is a lot the BMD cam DOESN'T have for $4k. ND filters, XLR/Phantom power, removable batteries, and many other things that should just be part of a video camera. The BMD cam requires a lot of accessories to be ready to shoot. I commend Canon for actually making nice cameras still – many of the other manufactures have lost focus on what makes a useable camera.
